Lender has raised or refinanced over £2 billion of facilities during 2023
Specialist lender Together has successfully refinanced its Highfield Asset Backed Securitisation 1 Limited (HABS) warehouse facility, which was upsized by £200 million to £725 million.
The HABS warehouse facility was originally launched in 2018 to fund the origination of small balance commercial real estate (CRE) loans, primarily to support small and medium sized businesses and commercial property investors in the UK.
Together announced that as a result of the successful refinancing, the maturity has been extended to December 2027 and a new bank has been added to the facility.
